A Thousand Blows

From the Peaky Blinders creator comes this compelling new Victorian London-set historical drama based on actual figures. It’s the story of two best friends from Jamaica who arrive in England for a fresh start, but get recruited to box their way to survival as they come up against a legendary all-female criminal gang and a dangerous, veteran boxer, Sugar Goodson. From Variety’s Aramide Tinubu: “A Thousand Blows” is masterful, delving into the fabric and texture of the late 1800s. In just six hourlong episodes, Knight’s tale contends with racism, sexism, greed and revenge, which sizzle and pulse throughout this underworld.” (Read the review)  Created by Steven Knight. Starring: Malachi Kirby, Stephen Graham, and Erin Doherty.
